Solution

The correct option is A Stroma and grana of chloroplast respectively
  • Photosynthesis takes place in two major steps, light reaction, and dark reaction.
  • Carbon-fixing during the dark reaction (light-independent process) takes place in the stroma of the chloroplast.
  • The light reactions of photosynthesis occur in the thylakoids of grana present in the chloroplast.
So, the correct answer is option A.
